On March 28, 2013, an Allentown PA pit bull owner plead guilty to 2 PA Dog Law charges in front of District Justice Joseph Pochron.  He had been cited for failure to control his pit bull and harboring a dangerous dog.  Attorney Thomas J. Newell had suggested to the Salisbury Township Police that they pursue the PA Dog Law charges so that restitution could be part of the punishment.

The Lehigh Valley pit bull attack victim is to receive $3,624.99 in restitution.  Her dog, Oreo, is on the way to recovery and will have surgery to remove the wires in its jaw next week.  Call Attorney Newell at 800-980-4842 to set up your free home consultation.  His website, www.PADogAttackLawyer.com has detailed information on his 31 years of experience.

On March 18, 2013, Attorney Thomas J.

On March 9, 2013, the mother of a 7 year-old Bucks County pit bull attack victim hired Attorney Thomas J. Newell to represent her son.  Five days earlier, the child was playing outside their Bensalem Township apartment when he was mauled by a pit bull.  He sustained a severe wound to his mouth which required 7 stitches to close.

Attorney Newell provided a free home consultation.  He has since contacted the Pennsylvania Department of Agriculture and the Bensalem Township Animal Control Officer.  It is unclear if the negligent pit bull owner has renter’s insurance.  Unfortunately, Pennsylvania does not require pit bull owners to have liability insurance coverage.

On March 7, 2013, Attorney Thomas J. Newell received a Court Order which permitted him to move forward to trial with a punitive damage count versus a negligent West Chester PA pit bull owner. The 3/4/13 Order of Judge Ann Marie Wheatcraft overruled the defendant’s preliminary objections to the complaint Attorney Newell had filed.

The Chester County pit bull attack victim had been mauled on April 24, 2011 by the defendant’s 2 pit bull mixed breed dogs. The vicious dogs had displayed prior vicious propensities and the negligent pit bull owner had not taken any precautions to protect the 4 year old child. The defendant’s insurance company had failed to make a reasonable settlement offer, so Attorney Newell filed a lawsuit to protect his client’s legal rights.

February 28, 2013 marked a pivotal day in Attorney Newell’s fight for justice for 2 Allentown area pit bull attack victims and their dog.  On that date, Officer Bryan Losagio informed Thomas J. Newell, Esquire that the Salisbury Township Police Chief concurred with his legal opinion.  PA Dog Law violations were filed on 2/28/13 against Montreal L. Howard with District Justice Michael J. Pochron.

The PA Dog Law charges were based upon a brutal unprovoked pit bull attack that took place on 2/4/13.  A 49 year old woman, as well as her 73 year old father, were bitten by the defendant’s pit bull as they tried to save the life of their cockapoo, Oreo.  The vet bills for Oreo are nearly $5,000.00 to date, with more veterinary care required.  The negligent pit bull owner has refused to pay even a penny for the vet bills or the victims’ medical expenses.  He has also failed to supply Attorney Newell with information regarding the landlord’s insurance company.

Attorney Newell provided the Assistant District Attorney with numerous Pennsylvania Appellate Court decisions which would support a conviction in this rottweiler attack case.  His 10 year old client was present to testify for the Commonwealth, as were his parents and the Monroe County Dog Warden, George Nixon.
